A bad thing is that Rithmic does not provide Eurex and other European market data and treade service. Zen Fire instead provide the major European Futures. None of them provides ICE BRN that is a really interesting instruments, moves like CL with similar daily volume and $3.16 round turn with NT thru TT.

Zen works only on 32-bit, instead Rithmic works now on 64 too, I think they use different API. I'm trying Rithmic, and seem works well, the only bad is that the historical data come always from Zen thru NT servers.

I did a little bit more research and I want to address some topics discussed:
The first thing to understand about Rithmic that it has it's own connectivity, hosting, equipment and data center.
Some partners use may use only part of the Rithmic solution, for example they may use only their software.
It does not mean they use their data center, hosting, etc. As such, I believe that using terms such as "white-label" could be a bit misleading, because companies are fully capable of having their own data center and hosting and using a number of parties for the support of their infrastructure. Further, they can bring other exchanges through their data centers.

Optimus currently uses Rithmic for the entire support from hosting, connectivity and using the Rithmic data center.
We believe that by going with one party that proved itself reliable for institutional business and retail, we hope to get a stable environment for our traders who use Ninja,Multicharts, R-Trader and R/API that are all hooked via Rithmic.
Rithmic currently does not support Eurex through their data centers and such we don't offer it via Rithmic.

We are in discussions with another high-end solution provider for the Eurex, but I will only mention it when it's fully implementable. The idea is always to find a solution that is reasonable from a cost perspective so the commissions could stay low.
